The canoeing and archery was great I learnt loads of new skills, great value for money. The archery was new for 2011 and was excellent, would definitely recommend it to anyone if your looking for an action packed holiday full of laughs and adventures.I think it is good for all the family. More

My friend and I only had a couple of days in Oban but decided to make one of them an adventure day. We decided on Stramash because they were very well reviewed and very helpful in guiding us to which activities would be best for us, since neither of us had any experience in doing this sort of thing. We... More

The Scottish summer doesn't make everyone want to jump into the sea or take a plunge into ice cold rock pools, especially if you're not familiar with getting in (or out) of a wet suit. However, our two, half day, activities with Stramash in and around Oban were simply fantastic. Our first activity was 'Canyoning' which involves working our way... More

We did the Coasteering Event which involved swimming, rock jumping and climbing along the Oban coastline. Very good fun and would recommend. If you like climbing and swimming maybe opt for the advanced coasteering as I found this quite tame, but perfect for mixed abilities. We did this as a work away day event. Equipment is all provided (wetsuits, helmets,... More

Andrew was our guide for the trip and he was excellent - he was really friendly and full of information and interesting facts about the local area. The location for our trip was planned out based on the weather and where they felt was the best... More

When in Scotland on holiday we checked out a few venues for gorge walking, and finally decided to do it with Stramash, and we were not disapointed. We were met by Andrew our guide and Chirsty his assistant, who suited us up and gave us instructions, then took us on a never-to-be-forgotten Gorge Walk. Andrew is an amazing guide, always... More

Didn't know what to expect - adventure was bought as a gift. We were well kitted out and looked after by Gordon, got stuck in from the start, the previous rain fall made for an interesting and enjoyably tiring experiance, clambering through waterfalls and over rockfall, some surprisingly recent! The weather will dictate how progress is made which adds to... More
